Weekly Washington Policy Pulse: Iran Conflict, Congress on Tariffs (March 2, 2026)

Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

A briefing on the current state of the US-Iran conflict, with a focus on the defense contractors like Lockheed, RTX and Northrop, led the March 2 edition of Bloomberg Intelligence’s Washington Policy Pulse. Senior Industry Analyst Wayne Sanders discussed how the attack on Iran is likely to be a limited engagement relying primarily on air and naval assets, supporting increased US investment in those assets. We also discussed how we think Congress is unlikely to authorize -- or block -- President Donald Trump's tariff strategy and gave a timing update on the future of the Basel III endgame, set to impact Bank of America, Citigroup and other large banks.

The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington DC. 

The call is open to all and is held every Monday at 10:00 a.m. EST. You can register for the call here: https://bloomberg.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__PqCkwY-S2m3hbQqvVC1_Q#/registration
